Mingxi

Chapter 4

Finish the last design draft and send it by mail.Mingxi pinched the bridge of his nose wearily. This is a customer who is particularly demanding on details. It took him several months to make a few simple character models, and even the hair is clearly visible.

At this moment, the mobile phone received a message that the takeaway he ordered was stopped downstairs, he had no choice but to pick it up by himself, the elevator stopped when it descended to the fifth floor, and a middle-aged man came in, his clothes were messy, Unshaven, bloodshot eyes, trance and dejected eyes. "Your daughter, have you found it?" Ming Xi asked softly.The man froze for a moment, wiped his face vigorously, and tried his best, "No." "I'll find it, you have to take care of yourself." "Thank you." Mingxi's comfort is in his heart, countless people tell him this kind of words every day, it's not something that hurts himself, it's just casual comfort without distraction.

Ming Xi stood behind him, looking at his slightly bent back, and his slightly gray sideburns despite being an upright man. He walked out with heavy steps, and his shadow was stretched very long by the deep corridor.Mingxi blinked her eyes, and her eyes seemed to darken a lot in an instant.

"Wow..." The little girl made a soft voice, like the wind blowing leaves, like water hitting rocks, she opened her arms, and walked through the corridor as lightly as a butterfly, following the pace of the man in front of her.She pulled the man's trousers, turned her head, her round face was mottled with water marks, her face was pale, her eyes were cloudy, and a few messy water plants fell out of her open mouth.

"Mr. Mingxi, you eat takeaway again, aren't you going to work recently?" The security guard smiled and handed him the takeaway. "Isn't this working at home, and I don't have time to cook?" Ming Xi exchanged pleasantries with him, and talked about the missing little girl.

"Hey, it's also pitiful. Her grandma cries every day, and that daughter-in-law beat and scolded her and wouldn't let her go home." The security guard sighed several times, "Her son has no choice but to find a place for his mother outside. Stay." Mingxi nodded, not expressing any opinion, remembering the old woman she saw sitting by the lake on the way here, with a sad look on her face, and said, "When I just came out, I saw that old woman sitting by the artificial lake. Beside, please pay attention, after all, you are old." The security guard was surprised, "Hey, okay, I will pay attention."

When Zhao Jun came home, Song Shuhua was coming out of the bedroom with red and swollen eyes, "Where have you been?" Divorce." She said bitterly and went into the bathroom, took a handful of water, pressed it on her face, and didn't raise her head for a long time.After a while, she sniffed and looked at the mirror in front of her. It was hot and the mirror surface was a little blurry. She wiped it off casually, but was horrified to see a young figure lying on her shoulder, looking through the mirror. Looking at her, the black lips opened and closed, silently shouting, 'Mom. '

"Ah..." She screamed in horror, picked up something and threw it on the mirror, which shattered to the ground. "What's the matter? What's the matter?" Zhao Jun rushed in. "Mirror, in the mirror..." "What's wrong with the mirror." Zhao Jun looked at the broken glass, not understanding what happened.Song Shuhua calmed down, threw him away, and said in a cold voice, "It's okay, I'm blind." After finishing speaking, she hurried back to the room, picked up her bag, and rushed out of the house.

Zhao Jun didn't stop her, and cleaned the bathroom without saying a word. In the fragments of the mirror on the floor, a small figure hanging on his calf was reflected.After Song Shuhua went out, she started to make a phone call with shaking hands, and after a while, she got connected, "Hey, how is the person you said you want to introduce to me? How much is it, okay, no problem." The call was still on, Someone patted on the shoulder suddenly, Song Shuhua turned her head sharply, and met a young face. "Hello, Ms. Song Shuhua. I'm your business manager, and my name is Jiang Zichen." Jiang Zichen looked at her frightened face and smiled slightly. "Is it convenient to find a place to talk?"

In a coffee shop not far away, Song Shuhua calmed down and took out a sealed bag from her bag, "This is my daughter's hair. I hope you can help me find her." "Ms. Song, you know Let's go." Jiang Zichen pointed the table with his slender fingers, "We are not responsible for finding the living." "I know." Song Shuhua wiped away her tears, "It's been so many days and there is no news, I already have this hunch Yes, besides, I seem to have seen my daughter's just now..." She paused, as if she couldn't accept it, so she vaguely said, "Anyway, please help me find it, the price is easy to negotiate."

"Okay, about three to five days, I will let you know when I have news." Jiang Zichen put away his hair, glanced at Song Shuhua's hand, and smiled meaningfully, "Ms. Song, your manicure is very beautiful." Song Shuhua said Dazed, he clenched his fist unnaturally, "Thank you, I will leave this matter to you, this is my contact information, I will go first."

Jiang Zichen watched her hurriedly walk into the platform through the glass window of the cafe. The mobile phone on the table suddenly lit up, indicating that a message had been received.He opened it and took a look, then sneered, "Sure enough."

"Grandma, you go back, ah, it's getting dark, you're not safe here, or I'll call your son and ask him to pick you up." At this moment, the security guard held the old grandma and thought Take her away from the lake.The old lady refused, and her dry lips kept opening and closing, muttering, "No, no, I'm leaving, and my granddaughter will not be able to find her way home." The security guard looked at her in a daze, as if she was mentally disturbed Look, a little scared panic.Looking up, he hurriedly greeted, "Mr. Mingxi." The setting sun was slightly drunk, and the warm yellow light reflected the sparkling water, flickering in his eyes. He walked over, held the old grandma's hand, and smiled The spring breeze melted in his heart, "Let's go, grandma, I will take you home." The old grandma looked at him with confused eyes, as if she had found someone she could trust, "Where is my little granddaughter?" "She will be back soon ""Okay..." She held onto Mingxi's hand tightly, and followed, leaving behind the security guard who was confused.

After seeing off the old grandma, Mingxi bumped into Jiang Zichen who was going home by chance on the way back. He waved his hand and greeted him with a natural and familiar look, as if yesterday's conflict hadn't happened at all, "You know I just went to Did you see anyone? That little girl's mother." Mingxi didn't want to pay attention to him, and pressed the elevator door close button hard. "She just had a manicure." He didn't care about Mingxi's disgust at all, and he still said to himself, "Isn't it strange that my daughter is still in the mood to go shopping when her life is uncertain?" Mingxi walked out of the elevator quickly , approaching the door of the house, but Jiang Zichen blocked the door, so he had no choice but to stop, "What do you want to say?"

"This world has a second side, I know it, and you know it too." He lowered his head, close to Ming Xi's eyes, "But, it's like a coin has two sides, you can't see both sides at the same time, unless you have a mirror .”
